4 salmon fillets (6 oz each)

For the Dill Sauce:
1/2 cup Greek yogurt or sour cream
2 tbsp fresh dill, chopped
1 tbsp lemon juice
1 tsp Dijon mustard
1 garlic clove, minced
Salt and pepper, to taste
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
Brush the salmon fillets with olive oil and season with salt and pepper.
Grill the salmon, skin-side down, for 4-5 minutes. Flip and cook for another 3-4 minutes, or until cooked through.
In a small bowl, mix together all dill sauce ingredients until well combined.
Serve grilled salmon hot, topped with a generous spoonful of dill sauce and lemon slices on the side.
You can substitute sour cream for Greek yogurt in the sauce.
Fresh dill works best, but 1 tsp dried dill can be used in a pinch.
Pairs well with grilled vegetables or a light salad.
